Anyone who follows this list we have seen a number of issues with
Solaris 10 and ZFS from me this week.

We deployed Solaris 10 for the usual conservative reasons, support and
stability.  Most of my my ZFS experience has been with SXCE and I've
seen problems reported and fixed a couple of builds later.  The further
SXCE moves ahead of Solaris 10 ZFS, the longer (and probably more
difficult) the task of back porting these fixes will become.

So my question is, for production servers (x4540) that are primarily SMB
(80%) and NFS (20%) file servers, would you deploy  SXCE with native
CIFS support, or Solaris 10/Samba?

I wouldn't hesitate to go with the former, relying on Live Upgrade to
incorporate fixes rather than patching.  Persuading clients may be a
little harder!
